Important note: conference as a virtual meeting
The 12th International Seminar on Speech Production (ISSP 2020) will take place during its revised dates (Dec 14-18, 2020) as an online virtual meeting (https://issp2020.yale.edu).
Note that previously accepted abstracts do not need to be resubmitted; however, authors are encouraged to upload revised versions of their abstracts based on reviewer feedback using the EasyChair portal. The deadline for new submissions and revisions to accepted abstracts is August 1st, 2020. The 12th International Seminar on Speech Production (ISSP), organized through Haskins Laboratories, will take place June 1-4 2020 in Providence, RI, USA, at the Omni Convention Center Hotel. Inaugurated in Grenoble in 1988, the ISSP is an international forum for researchers to share their work on all aspects of human speech production, including phonology, phonetics, prosody, biomechanics, signal processing, motor control, neuroscience, modeling, disordered speech and speech accommodation. The diversity of topics is a particular strength of the conference, providing opportunities for young researchers especially to be exposed to complementary ideas and methods apart from their immediate focus. Previous meetings have occurred in Sydney, Ubatuba (Brazil), Strasbourg, Montreal, Cologne, and Tianjin, and we anticipate that turnout for the Providence conference will be large and enthusiastic. The overall theme of the conference is intended to foster discussion of how speech production develops, consolidates, and degenerates over the typical lifespan. The meeting is structured around eight invited speakers, each highlighting a subtopic of interest within their session: Developmental • Lisa Goffman (UT Dallas); language acquisition and its disorders Elder speech • Cécile Fougeron (U. Sorbonne); effects of aging on coarticulation Disordered Speech • Suzanne Boyce (U. Cincinnati); articulatory characteristics of motor deficits Modeling • Gabriel Mindlin (U. Buenos Aires); syllabic structure of birdsong Methods • Brad Sutton (U. Illinois); rtMRI as a tool for viewing articulation across the entire vocal tract Neuroscience • Kristofer Bouchard (UCSF); eCOG as an emerging method for investigating speech motor planning and execution Speech Interaction • Jennifer Pardo (Montclair State); aspects of phonetic convergence and turn-taking in conversational dyads Speech Technology • Carol Espy-Wilson (U. Maryland); estimating articulatory gestures from acoustics
